great exploding design, the bell-tower repetition is an interesting affect.
The colour scheme is easy on the eyes too.
You studying architecture? I wouldn't ask, but I'm enrolled in architecture at uwa, and i guess i was curious.

This composition rocks :nods: a misconception behind architecture is that people associate it linear, horizontal/vertical and geometric designs. It's so cool that you're exploring the new-age side of architecture. It's so advant garde

Wow... Kevin will love you for this Scott. This is so cool... and I'm glad you stuck away from verticals and horizontals.

It's very impressive, but since you asked for crits: it almost looks too busy to me, especially on the front cover with the crazy shapes. There's so much going on, especially with the textures and angles inside the shapes, that it's hard to focus on one focal point, and the mash of the pictures makes me dizzy. Dunno what I would recommend in their place, though... Maybe dull the colors in the photos a bit so it's not such a drastic contrast between the shapes? Might make it easier on the eyes.
I LOVE the cranes and the circles!

looks wicked scott
Maybe the text could be slightly curved to suit the theme? just a thought
Unless you wanted the text to stand out as the only verticle part of your page..

I love the design. I especially love the use of pictures of architectural forms in the shapes. But, do the wild, flowing shapes reflect the prevailing architectural style of the city? Also, I think the title and author's name could be a little more prominent on the front cover.

Thanks for the comment
Yeah, absolutely the shapes suit the architecture. We have about three new modern public building, (Swan Bell Tower, Maritime Museum and Convention Centre) all of which utilise these flowing forms. That is where the inspiration for the design came from.
